Talon

Have you ever read Batman vol. 11? Have you read Batman? DC comics. Any comics? Nothing? In fairness, I haven't read vol. 11, but I know what the Court of Owls is. It's a group of killers who trick the kids who become their talons by saying that the victims are corrupt residents of Gotham. Talons are assains who serve the court for a while then get literally killed off by the new talons. One talon went roque. Calvin Rose found out the truth when he was assinged to kill Casey Washington who has a two-year girl named Sarah Washington. Discusted by killing innocent people and so he escaped the court, or so he thought. One of the talons locked him in the hood of a car naked! However he escaped and the first question he asked was "WHERE THE HECK ARE MY PANTS!" (BTK, I typed in caps lock cause that's how they do it in the comics.Oh and BTK means Best To Know.) He left Gotham and came back to take down the court. Altough, this time the court resurected the former talons and made them unstoppable. A man named Sebastian Claek offers to help Calvin tear apart the court. He'll do it in his former talon costume to make it more ironic. The court ripped apart by one of their own talon1s. At the end of issue 2#, the court resurected Felix Harmon, a.k.a. The Gotham Butcher. I wish I could've gotten issues 3# through 10#. Seeing as how my dad (He got the comics as a surprise) couldn't get his hands on issue 3#, he got me issue 11#. Apparently, Casey Washington seemed dead but was alive an out to save Sarah (8 years old now.) from the court which is brainwashing the innocent girl, Felix is dressed as Batman, Bane got stronger and met Calvin, Calvin has new friends and so does Bane, and Calvin was killed by Bane and resurected. I like seeing the genious in Talon with his clever escapes and words of destiny. What was cool is that in the second issue Talon has a sound gun allowing him to hide in plain sight. The story line can cofuse you though. I'm not just saying that because I missed a couple of issues. As for the graphics, I think they're really unique and very realistic. I say they give DC artists a raise as big as Bane on titan with growth potion inside! Yet the comics are a little dark with stuff like killing litle girls or letting dogs tear up an older girl. Yet that proves how righteous Talon is. BOOM goes the awesomeness dynamite! http://www.dccomics.com/
